That is certainly true for 3-couple dances but Red House as I know it is
a 2-couple dance. Therefore, unless I'm wrong, if you begin as a `2' you
stay a `2' (mostly doing nothing) until you reach the top, at which
point you miss one turn and then start again as a `1' (busy). Where do
the 3s come in in Red House?
